INDIANAPOLIS -- The man who won Wednesday night's Hoosier Lotto reportedly knows he won the jackpot -- but has yet to come forward.
The winning ticket, worth more than $15 million, was sold at the Smoker's Nook on the east side.
Employees at the store told RTV6 that a man showed up Thursday to check his numbers and found out that he won the prize.
The man left the store and has not publicly come forward to claim his winnings.
Earlier this month, the time period expired for someone to come forward with the ticket that won $51.7 million in a Powerball drawing in September.
It was the first time since Powerball began in 1992 that a jackpot went
unclaimed.
